Controversy
After The Tale of Horus Traver, DWD opted to work with a larger studio instead of Schwable. In a Reddit AMA for his voice work on another game, Schwable recalled his frustration with how Dire Wolf ended their working relationship, and his anger that they re-hired some of the actors had previously found through the new studio (feeling he was being cut out of a commission).[2]
DWD commented on the situation, stating that they hadn't been satisfied and decided to change contractors, and chose to re-record some voiceovers where they felt the quality should be improved. Regarding the re-hired actors, they said: "For some major characters, we continued using a few of the previously-contracted individual artists for continuity reasons, but none of that was subject to commission owed to anybody else.
"[4]
Notes
Schwalbe chose to act Champion of Fury's "Yeti gibberish" voiceover script as written:
My script said "Yeti gibberish with Skycrag in it, like "Barglesh Skycrag mimblenumble." So I said "Barglesh Skycrag mimblenumble." :)
